Add real-time safety critical systems, realistic 3D rendering, reverse engineering, quines, Paxos, deep learning, production-quality Haskell, and Boston Dynamics.


- Realistic 3D rendering: start with Ray-Tracing. It's fun!

- Quines: those are dark magic, but not very useful.

- Deep learning: A fancy word for multi-layerd neural network. Interesting concept, but nothing scary.

- Production-quality Haskell: You would be surprised how low-quality some production codes are.

- Boston dynamics: that happens when a group of smart people focus on a subject with no hinderance.


Quines almost always have exactly the same structure:

- Header (code)

- Data blob (string variable) that encodes the header and footer

- Footer (code)

Since the data blob is a variable, the header/footer simply decode the data blob and write out the decoded header, original blob, and decoded footer.
